Jack's 2nd Birthday

We celebrated Jack's 2nd birthday over a few days because of Brian's crazy work schedule. On Sunday night, February 15th, we celebrated Jack's birthday with dinner, presents and an awesome Indiana Jones cupcake cake. Jack loved everything he got!




On Tuesday, February 17th (Jack's actual birthday), Jana and I took the kids to one of Jack's favorite places, the Thanksgiving Point Dinosaur Museum. Jack absolutely loves dinosaurs and it was fun to watch them have the run of the place. After the museum, I took Kate and Jack to eat dinner and play in the McDonald's playland. It was a full and fun day!

Happy Birthday Jack

Today is Jack's 2nd birthday. I can't believe how fast time flies. I look back at pictures of him and it feels like just yesterday. To look at some of the first pictures of this tiny guy, then hear him saying 'awesome', 'seriously' and 'I watch Yo Gabba Gabba' is both happy and sad. He has turned into such a funny little dude and we are so lucky to have him in our family. Love you, Jack-Jack!

Yo-Yo Man

For those of you who don't know, Brian is a yo-yo geek. He withheld this information until after we were married. Apparently, all there is for freshman guys to do at BYU is learn yo-yo tricks. But I digress. Brian has always been proud of his tricks and his super ball-bearing yo-yo with custom leather case. Yeah, he had that before we got married, too. So being the super-fine wife I am, I got excited for Brian when I saw that his yo-yo idol, Dale Myrberg, was going to be performing at the library. Not only was Brian excited, but the kids were, too. I couldn't believe how many people showed up for this thing. We got great seats because we arrived early and I got some great pictures and video. I have to admit, this guy was amazing.


Here are some short video clips of Dale Myrberg performing...Brian watches these for practice!
